Yes! Found a 2N5088 in my junk box: polished box w/ pics

Now my Treble Booster sounds right! It gets really close to the Queen / Brian May sound when driving my JCM 800 clone.

I knew I had one somewhere but I thought it was in a circuit that I wanted to keep. I lucked out.    I just got finished mounting everything in a nice polished aluminum Distortion + sized box I had and found the perfect knob for it out of my stash of parts. I took the box to work and had to remove black paint and then polish the box all while keeping my stamping press running and doing all the quality checks.  :shock: It looks a little like chrome, but not nice new chrome. It's got that old, slightly scratched chrome look to it.

The bottom is still black. I didn't want to remove the yellow neoprene foot I had already put on the bottom. The knob is a big MXR style knob that I got at Radio Shack some time ago. The box has a few flaws, like the pit that you can see in the third picture next to the volume knob. That's cast aluminum for ya!  :roll:

This thing got some gain to it :shock: .....Has the nice really long sustain you can slide into notes and I used a treble .0022 cap in the high cut position...Really has the sustain treble is nice I dont like the noise :? ...But that comes with pedals that have a drive to them :lol: How is yours ...I really dont need the gain as my amp really has nice sustain with my shaka kinda pedal......
